HELP!

I have three kids, two boys named Sawyer & August and a daughter named Isla. I'm looking for a name to go with theirs.

My husband is Australian and we both grew up on the beach so we love the ocean, summer, being outdoors and want a name to reflect that.

Sawyer was picked for TomSawyer, who represents (to us) being outside, floating down the river, fishing, . . .

We picked Isla, because we got married on a beach on a beautiful Hawaiian island and just fell in love with the name the first time I heard it.

August represents the summer and also because we met in August and got married in August too.

Any suggestions without naming them Ocean or Violet? I don't like a lot of word names - August is obviously the exception. :)

So far here is what I have come up with. But feel free to suggest more. Please!!!! This list is just our jumping off place.

THE GIRLS:

Bronte: A suburb of Sydney, Australia, where I met my husband when I was backpacking around Australia and New Zealand. Plus, I'm an English major and Sawyer is a literature name too. They prounounce it Bron-Tee over there, but we would pn it Bron-tae.

Cora: Reminds us of Coral (i.e. Great Barrier (coral) reef in Australia).

Malu: Isla made friends with a Malu when we went on vacation in Maui. She was the cutest thing.
